[@ArtemyMods]

I've released a patch fixing certain issues and also included a separate download for the draw distance fix.

[@smc-susan]

Awesome

[@TeodorLojewski]

The deleted voice lines confirm that Celeste died during the boat exposition.

[@RennieAsh]

When you see the Mirror's Edge title at the end of the game, it feels like you just played the longest intro level ever

[@velxen77]

Is a demo

[@jaw2floor]

I could imagine this level frustrating the shit out of me

[@pavvl6724]

Ah, that's the reason. No wonder there's no guards on the roof anymore after Faith rescuing Kate.

[@mason1261]

deadass tho... makes sense now

[@mr.jamster8414]

I like to think they were either shooting at Jacknife, or were scared of the helicopter flying into them.

[@sulphurous2656]

Jackknife's restored dialogue also helps to clear up some stuff too.

[@TeodorLojewski]

True

[@TeodorLojewski]

@@sulphurous2656 so that dialogue is true?

[@sonyviva308]

Okay, when the credits roll, the news reader said "an incident at The Shard left 9 people dead..." Who are those 9 people? I counted more than 15 enemies there!

[@cxeroannuki2840]

Maybe they didn't discover all the bodies.

[@tastezemelon7229]

IDK falling helicopters tend not to kill people in large city's

[@naKuhito]

Let's say some died and some survived

[@King-or6ll]

Well people have survived gunshots before.

[@orton3541]

The list definitely includes Miller and possible Jacknife, and the pilot of the blackhawk. Although I'm guessing the devs intended for most of the PKs to be dispatched by melee combat.

[@amonnunesfarofapoop7047]

This would have been one of the greatest moments of this game if not for the fact it went unused.

[@WamWooWam]

Very portal with the taunts from the main boss while you're battling the rest of the stage, I like.

[@XGames-94]

I always thought that they couldn't have made that whole map just for the time trials.

[@ArtemyMods]

+Xtreme Games Yeah. Also there were a few path nodes placed in the map, as if someone started placing them and 5 minutes later he was told to stop, I had to finish the job though. :)

[@TeodorLojewski]

@@ArtemyMods Really? No way!

[@ArtemyMods]

Don't mind the gameplay, I was tired and play tested this more than 50 times. Those of you who want only the draw distance fix, put in only the Scraper_heli.me1 and Scraper_heli_art.me1 files.

[@SSaNNEE100]

I wonder why they didn't include all this ending fighting to the final game. Also I've heard that there were many other things left out of the game and can still be found in the files.

[@XOXOcel]

Perhaps they thought fighting all those enemies in the Shard may be hard enough already, who knows!

[@extrascript6622]

Alexander I

[@cybercat1531]

Because if you actually play it you'll realize it just doesn't fit. The final 'boss fight' is forced and just comes across as a gun spammy, cursed shit fest.

[@spartan117ce]

@@cybercat1531 Very accurate. You literally just went through a segment with a mini-boss, aka that nuisance of a machine gunner in the server room, and it was dull as shit, having to do something similar again would be an awful way to end it. the melee fight segments in the Boat were more entertaining. Hell Jacknife was a former runner, he should be engaging you in a hand to hand duel and nothing else. Do wish the other cut levels made it though, the cut music files are pretty gud.

[@graphs]

Dang, back at it again with the great content. This is awesome. I like the dialogue that is being said while you fight the enemies. Makes it unique and spiced up.

[@ArtemyMods]

+GraphicsSettings (͠≖ ͜ʖ͠≖) Glad you enjoyed it. :p

[@yolox2734]

This would make more sense compared to the original ending where the PK's just leave you and kate alone after you rescue her.

[@TeodorLojewski]

True

[@GrayMansEndlessIncite]

Challenging Final Boss fights are becoming a lost art in gaming... Good work!

[@sherrattpemberton6089]

while it would have been frustrating, its was more satisfying an ending from a story perspective

[@PeterSims]

This is incredibly awesome! Do you reckon' it'd be possible to restore some of the cut dialogue in the rest of the levels? IIRC, Faith had some additional dialogue with Merc that went unused.

[@TeodorLojewski]

There's a mod for that!

[@sulphurous2656]

Oh my goodness, why didn't I install this when replaying the game for the second time just now. Guess I should have checked the trivia on the tvtropes page sooner.

[@Shanicdnb]

Beautifull work, keep it up man!

[@ArtemyMods]

+Shanic Thanks a lot! :)

[@claytonhawk8512]

Bro this would have made a sick ending. This is awesome

[@extrascript6622]

This was fantastic!

[@thegamervanashagachannel1875]

Really awesome! The fight and dialogs are very good, though I don't think that Jacknife is so angry. What a pity that they didn't add this in the game!

[@GmodThe]

it's an awesome mod, but on hard difficulty, it's unbeatable for sure

[@internets2009]

There's no way I'm going past this fight

[@qntkk_]

artemy can you make a mod that where is another ending for the shard and make a gameplay too of the other ending mod please? that would be awesome.

[@themusicofyoursoul254]

Is the Scraper_P.me1 file in the download because I couldn't see it in the folder?

[@annmikhailova7028]

Are the dialogues taken from unused content? I've watched kekuncias's video but there were no dialogues in the Shard btw, you've made a great work

[@zephyr1018]

The pursuit cops got upgraded

[@Rollersteaam]

Awesome man

[@ArtemyMods]

+Rollersteaam Glad you like it.

[@xShortRangex]

This mod is great, but does anyone have any tips on how to beat it? I'm playing on Normal and I don't necessarily consider myself bad at the game, but I'm consistently getting my ass absolutely handed to me. My strategy is to run to the left or right to double back around the whole arena and try to get my hands on a gun, but the ninja guys either catch up to me too fast or the sniper takes me out on my way there. If anyone has any tips, hit me up!

[@MultiNatla]

Thank you! This compliments and polishes what kekuncias had uploaded before (he uploaded the new heli path but not the enemies). Also, any chance someone would extract that track the plays during the chase? It seems to be long and I've never heard it before.

[@ArtemyMods]

+MultiNatla It's already extracted in many places. It's just not on youtube. It's Combat_02.

[@MultiNatla]

+Abincyp OK, thanks!

[@TheReq]

Is the culling fix a simple ini edit or did you have to mod something in the unreal editor?

[@ArtemyMods]

+Req I had to mod the culling values for assets in the editor. Yep.

[@whodatninja439]

The mod glitched for me, so everytime i reached the helicopter it would take me back to the checkpoint! So i uninstalled it.

[@ianmitchell5979]

Ran into a bug where if you play the chapter, at least starting at the checkpoint BEFORE the final checkpoint, there's a massive bug. When you start the helicopter cutscene, the audio for Jackknife's taunting begins early. Then the cutscene gets cut off, and the fight begins SUPER early. This is with version 1.1 Is there a mistake I made when installing it, or is this something to be fixed in a later version of the mod?

[@ianmitchell5979]

Issue doesn't seem to have been addressed, from the looks of the page. Any plans of patching this?

[@TeodorLojewski]

Thanks!!!

[@ianmitchell5979]

I've been trying to play the 1.1 version, and have even tried installing all the files on the page, but it won't do anything. I still get the normal final sequence everytime I load the chapter at the last checkpoint.

[@ArtemyMods]

Where did you install the mod?

[@ianmitchell5979]

@@ArtemyMods I downloaded the zip, extracted the files, and moved them to where your instructions said to. Although, when I do, it replaces the files that have the same names. I was told to put it into the game's document directory instead, but I've never done that before. If you could give me the instructions on how to do it step-by-step, including what files to download to have the full 1.1 version, that'd be VERY helpful! Thank you!

[@ianmitchell5979]

@@ArtemyMods Nevermind. Figured it out.

[@ianmitchell5979]

@@ArtemyMods I'm still struggling with a bug where the final fight interrupts the cutscene cutscene before it, talking to Jackknife. Did you ever test this mod by playing the the sequence before the final fight, or did you always start the level on the final checkpoint? If the ladder, that's probably why you missed it. How do I fix this? Or is this something that's the mod's problem and I can't do anything?

[@ianmitchell5979]

@Neo Anderson Yeah, but now I'm facing an issue where when starting the level in an earlier checkpoint, like the server room, the start of the helicopter cutscene before the fight gets glitched out by the modded final fight and dialogue.

[@verguco6051]

this breaks the flow of the game, the game isnt about combat, having an epic final battle just doesnt feel right, but yeah the official ending feels a little rushed

[@TeodorLojewski]

The original ending also doesn't explain why the guards disappeared.

[@MultiNatla]

Aw dang that's the time trial music. On kekuncias's video it was something else.

[@ArtemyMods]

+MultiNatla Keku didn't add any sound track. It's actually an unused track, they just recycled it for Time Trials.

[@naKuhito]

What is this game ? MirdoEdg ? I think I saw it somewhere it looks cool

[@Fireglo]

Ah so Celeste died in the Boat explosions. I was confused how she just disappeared 3/4 into the game.

[@zephyr1018]

How can she die if she left?

[@Fireglo]

@@zephyr1018 she didn't leave? Faith walked out of there alone after causing explosions in all directions except the one she went. Besides this dialogue pretty much confirms Celeste did die.

What is this "culling"?

[@ArtemyMods]

+Exile Something similar to draw distance.

[@naywyn]

Abincyp oh okay. Is the fix only for this map?

[@ArtemyMods]

+Exile It's a fix only for the top of the Shard to be more specific, but I doubt there are any culling issues out of the Shard's roof since the map is mostly mid to close range.

[@naywyn]

Abincyp True

its so lame when you can just jump over those 2 obstacles and end the game in like 2 seconds too
